Even if the reaction time is higher than what we detect as a latency, it's still a bad news, but delivered ... later. :) I left 300000 km/s, because I thought

It's an interesting case because it's not a question-response situation where the roundtrip is crucial, because for the most part each musician is playing independently and only listening to the rest to stay in sync. I wonder if you could do this: 1) Have every member stream to every other member directly with an accurate absolute timecode (good NTP-adjusted or even GPS clocks) 2) Have every member mix in all the streams using the absolute time code and buffering as much as needed for the slowest stream (so you'd have 100ms of buffer in the worst case). This would give you a synced up band where every member listens to the same mixed stream and yet everyone is listening to themselves on a slight delay. I wonder how well our brains could cope with that introduced delay and if it would then screw up live performance, or if we can adapt to that sort of thing quickly.
